.In 1993 we were introduced to Craig when we were looking for a builder to build our home. Ever since then we have remained good friends and so grateful to have known him. He set high standards in his work and more than anything he was honest!

We will miss you at the ballpark when the Cardinals come to town.

Peace be with you and to your family.

I met Craig when he was a young officer in the AF. He had it all: brains, looks, adventure, humor, and that infectious smile. I miss him and pray that he has found a peaceful place.

I was stationed with Craig at Luke Air Base. He was a very good friend, and had hoped to he him after moving back to AZ from New Jersey after 30 years.

I feel very sad for him and his family.
